How to close all the windows before the next test in a test suite?

[7] pry(#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1>)> page.execute_script "window.close()"
Selenium::WebDriver::Error::NoSuchWindowError: Script execution failed. Script: window.close();
 The window could not be found

[8] pry(#<RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup::Nested_1>)> page.driver.browser.window_handles
=> ["f1-2"]

I had a browser open with two tabs, the above command does close one but the last tab never closes. It is open but when I try to run page.execute_script "window.close()" it gives the above error.

page.driver.browser.window_handles.each do |handle|
  page.driver.browser.switch_to.window(handle)
  page.execute_script "window.close()"
end

The above code was working for me sometime back but doesnt work anymore. It gives the same error.

UPDATE:

When I use,

page.driver.browser.window_handles.each do |handle| 
   page.driver.browser.switch_to.window(handle) 
   page.driver.browser.close 
end

it gives the following error Selenium::WebDriver::Error::UnknownError: 'auto_id' does not refer to an open tab

page.driver.browser.close closes current tab towards the end and the last (second) tab closes itself after each example.

Two ways you can do it

  1. In line with your technique using JS. You would first need to switch back to your first browser window (window_handle) and then perform "window.close()". (Not Preferred) (Not sure why its not working now for you, did you upgrade server version or different browser?)

  2. Simply use @driver.quit (Preferred)

Update

Just write this once. This will close all windows. 

  after(:each) do
    @driver.quit
  end

If you want to close only one browser tab/window/popup, switch to that window_handle and then perform 

@driver.close();
